OK, lets see if I can clear this up. First off, although it isn't obvious from 30 feet away, the A and Super A have SUBSTANTIAL, FUNDAMENTAL differences.
1) The Super A has an integrated hydraulic system, known as the Touch-Control system.
2) The Super A has a quick-attach implement mounting system that mainly affects the drawbar and anything attached where the drawbar mounts. It also has heavy fenders that support a multi-use rear rockshaft.
The cultivators were almost completely redisigned from the A to Super A to work with and take advantage of the changes to the tractor.
Anyone that tries to mount an A cultivator on a Super A will have one of 3 possible outcomes.
1) He quickly runs into problems due to the differences in the tractors and give up. This result represents knowing one's limitations.
2) He recognizes the problems. He realizes that it is not possible to "find the parts for use with hydraulics" as those parts do not exist. Knowing how BOTH styles of cultivators were designed to work, he applies his skills as a fabricator to make/modify parts to make the hydraulics work acceptably with the cultivator. He modifies the rear mount bearings to fit the quick-attach drawbar studs. He has a whole pile of left-over A hand lift parts that don't fit on a Super A. This result represents the skills of a good fabricator.
3) Equipped with little skill and a welder, he none-the-less cobbles something together that half-%## works. Most others keep a good distance from this sort of creation. This result represents what I have seen from nearly every attempt at oucome number 2.
You have been given responses to your original question that address each of the 3 possible outcomes. Does this eliminate some of the confusion?

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
